UETDRMP018 Low Voltage Rescue (LVR) in Canberra
Small 1-4 student micro-classes at our place or yours — with optional CPR & First Aid
Great news for ACT sparkies and teams: we’ve moved fast to the new UETDRMP018 – Perform rescue from a live low voltage panel, the replacement for UETDRMP007. Our delivery is designed for tiny, hands-on classes of four (4)—either at our home training space in Gungahlin or onsite at your business—with easy options to bundle CPR (HLTAID009) and First Aid on the same visit.

What changed with UETDRMP018?
UETDRMP018 is the updated national unit for low-voltage switchboard rescue. It replaces UETDRMP007 and aligns delivery/assessment to current electricity supply/electrical industry practice. A July-2025 companion guide also confirms changes to prerequisites, shifting the focus to industry familiarity and realistic simulation (rather than mandated prior units). Training.gov.au
In plain English: if your people work on/near LV panels, this is the unit you need going forward. (It’s also the one most networks and employers now expect.) Training.gov.au
